In this game, a bonus mechanism can reward the player relative to their underlying game bets. Such a bonus may be triggered by an underlying game outcome (which may or may not be an outcome which a bet can be placed) or by an event independent of the underlying game. A bonus reward can be the playing of one or more plays of the underlying game, optionally with different play rules and/or pay schedules.

Thus, what is needed are apparatus and methods for roulette casino game that provide increase payout options and increased strategy of players and excitement as well as provide additional advantages over currently available roulette casino gaming systems. Some advantages could be increase player's awareness of alternative gaming systems and allow a player to customize their playing style and betting options in response to a new twist on roulette casino games. Furthermore, other advantages include casino owners or operators being able to retrofit an existing roulette casino game and adjust table/betting areas easily (on a periodic, regular, or semi-regular timing schedule) and provide additional gaming options for participants without requiring complicated set-up or equipment options or large change in gaming rules or to build on existing roulette gaming rules and regulations.

Furthermore, a player may desire to play first type of roulette casino game in the morning (e.g., before noon), a second type of roulette game in the afternoon (e.g., happy hour), and a third type of roulette game in the evening (e.g., after seeing a Broadway show or event) that requires minimal assembly or disassembly “on the fly” and adjustability to a player desired gaming configuration so that assembly/removal time for the game is minimized.

Thus, what is needed are improved roulette type apparatus and methodology that permits easy initial configuring and reconfiguring, i.e., provide adaptability, and upgrade capability so that the same unit be utilized (or added-on to) if new functionality is desired. Furthermore, such improved apparatus and methods would also ideally allow a person other than a professional or licensed personal to adjust or retrofit the roulette type game, instruct players on the rules and regulations, provide a variety of gaming options and payout options, encourage player game interaction and involvement, stimulate player brain activity during game, and correct errors and consistently provide guidance and player instructions. Finally such improved apparatus and methodology should permit creation of casino-customized roulette type gaming configurations and customized fit and appearance of the casino game as well as new patterns requiring minimal efforts, e.g., minimal adjustment or removal and replacement or adaptation of existing components than conventional roulette type games.
